Joseph is. bated' by his brothers and 'by
4,hem ie sold( into Egypt. Joseph, ~white 1

&caused of sin and cast into piison. God
'Ree wible ,of

On dreams of the butler end' baker, and
inter interprets P!imraolas dreams, after
rtanaich he is made ruler of Egypt. He
gathers Much corn during the seven
years of plenty. Soon after 'the famine,
gire Joseph'e brothers come to Egypt
to buy corn. After testing them .he
makes •himself known and sends for his
father. Joseph gives the land of Gosh-
en to kis father and brethren. Joseph
forgives his brothers the great wrong
they did him in selling hien as a slave.
Atter the death of Joseph the Isrealites
became eravee to este Egyptians. God
ataises up Moses to • -lead the Israelites
out of bondage. He is educated in Phar-
'ao!h's court and then spends forty years
in Arabia, after which God calls him to
deliver :his people. Moses consents' with
mtlell reluctance, and God gives :him his
brother Aaron as 'his •assistant. Ten
plagues are brought on the Egyptians
after which Pharaoh thrusts them out.
At the tame of their departure the Pass-
over is instituted, The Israelites pass
through. the Red Sea in safety, bat the
Egyptians are drowned. Thus Goth de-
livers Ms people front the power of
their oppressors.

Hints for Review.
During the quarter our iesaons have
led us into four labels: 1. Canaan, where
Isaac lived, from whieb Jacob fled, where
Joseph was sold. 2. 'Mesopotamia, where
Jacob fled. 3. Egypt, where the :ration
was raised up. 4. Arabia. the land to
which Moses fled and where he received
his cal), to deliver Israel.
We have studied the lives and the
Charaeters of three great men: 1. ,Tacos.
• a man of prayer and faith, who gained
ei signal victory and received a great
blessing. 2. Joseph, aman c.f integrity,
'who became great. 3, Moses. Study (11
the training, (2) the character, (3) the
influence and power, and (4) the suc-
cess of Moses.

and later, in Egypt, the :lescenrlants of

PRACTICAL TEACHINGS.
A heart that is reaching out after Clod
will surely find him. When God changes
one's name there is a significance in it.
The evil designs of enemies often work
in a direction opposite to the one intend-
ed. Faithfulness even in prison is not
unappreciated. Man could r.•Itrai well
have managed the affairs of Pharaoh
and Jacob as did God even againsir man',s
devices. No wrong against man is inn
great to be forgiven: God'; people fall
into difficulties but he promises them
grace to stand. Clod know where to find
the "proper child" to train for the pe-
culiar service that was demanded. There
ie safety in faith and obedience. Tf we
have God's presence with u, we can at-
tempt great things for .Ilian. Had there
been no opplloseion there could ha re
been no deliverance. Gori permits His
people to be brought into difficult places
et times that He may show His love
and power.
Illustrations.
Prisons have been among the ntost pro-
fitable places for God's people. Banyan

gress;" Samuel Rutherford used to date
his letters, "Christ's Palace, Aberdeen

A fine example of reverence for Cod
is found in the conduct of a great scien-
tist as related by A. Bodge. He says:

ry, the illustrious Christian Scientist, in
his original experiments. When for the
first time electric signals were sent from
point to point, the earth itself being
used for the return current, Professor
Henry put me at .one end of the cir-
cuit, while he stood directing the experi-
rents at the other. I can well remem-
be•: with what care he arranged all his
principal experiments; when he ap-
proached the solution, the experiment
was repeated over and over again. Then
he called upon me to uncover my head
and worship in silence, 'Because,' he
said, 'God is here. I am about to ask
God a question.'"
Practical Applications.
Three names stand out prominently
in the lessons of this quarter, and from
their characters and acts some practical
truths may be drawn.
I. Jacob. 1. A warning. The condi-
tion of Jacob on this journey was
brought about by his selfish and deceit-
ful conduct toward his brother. Here
is a picture of one, through divine pro-
mise entitled to the blessings of a frist-
born, fleeing in fear, from the one whom
he had. wronged. He had introduced so
much of human scheming into the affair,
that he came to feel its bitter effects;
while if he had implicitly trusted God,
he would have escaped the humiliation.
as, is altogether better to let God work
out the problems that belong to him
than to introduce our own schemes. .
A revelation. God is so merciful that
he does not leave us in the pit into
which we have fallen, though it may
have been dug by our own hands, if we
have a genuine desire to get out. Jacob
saw more during that night at Bethel
than he had ever seen before. He saw
himself in a new light, end he caught a
glimpse of the glorious resources
of heaven. When a. human
heart swishes that stage.: 'where he be-
comes sick of selfish ambition" and de-
sires God, he will receive a revelation
that will be at once astonishing, abund-
ant
ant and satisfying. 3. A new name. Al-
though 'Jacob had succeeded front a so-
cial and financial -standpoint, a crisis
came when he realized that he must re'
ceive a blessing which as yet was not
hie. He prevailed and became a "prince'
The same biassing is in store for every
one who will prevail as Jacob did.
IT. Joseph. 1. Sincerity. This is one
of the most noticeable qualities of this
unstained character. Re may have erred
in telling so freely the dreams that, he
had, but if so he did it out of his art-
less simplicity. One of his brothers
might have dreamed the same dreams
and told them as freely as Joseph did.
but Joseph would have been too sincere
and innocent to be unfavorably affected
by them. Men vary in sincerity natur-
ally, but the impartation of divine grace
will make us all sincere. 2. Patienee.'ihe
conditions of life that Satan imposes
upon us with a view to our destruction
will, through the power of divine grace
according to our faith, work in us a
degree of patience that will qualify in
for life's activities. 3. liouor. It was
not Judah nor Simeon that attained to
honor in Pharaoh's court, but it was
„Joseph, their victim. The character
that Joseph possessed would bring honor
to hint anywhere. Those who seek honor
among men fail to secure the honor that
cometh from God only. Those who
honor God with their thoughts, their
words sad their acts will receive honor
from Him. Joseph tack the course he
dill, not to ,c pure tate honor that cants,
to him later, but because he chose to
obey Clod.
In Moses. 1, Preservation. From
first to last Moses was the Hain of the
hour. It would be idle to attribute his
being kept alive to accident. God's pro-
vidence set a train of events in action
that gave to Egypt and Israel' a Moses.
Pharaoh had one thing in mind in the
training of :hoses, but God had a very
different one. Choice. He chose "ra-
ther to suffer affliction, ..than to enjoy
the pleasures of sin." We have induce-
ment, presented to us again and again
to be identified with the world. We
have to choose between the reproach of
Christ and the pleasures of sin, between
the jays of salvation and the empty ,jos;
of earth, between the riches of God':•
grace and the uncertain riches of this
world. We are encouraged by the choice
that Moses trade to make a similar one.
3. Discipline. The choice was immediately
followed by forty years of discipline. eI'
was. constantly comforted by the can•
scionaness of having made the light
choice, and was in a, position to endure
the things that befell hint . Moses et
eighty was better fitted for leadership
than Moses at forty. ile who maintains
his favor with God year in and year out
is undergoing discipline,, and is increasing;
and ripening in .Christiate experience.

San Francisco, May 2i The commit-
tee of seven .appointed by the five com-
mercial organizations of Jean Francisco
to takeover some of the power of Mayor
Schmitz resigned last night. The rea-

The commission was to have acted in

made to wreck the west bound Winnipeg
train on the C. P. R. about a mile west
of Almonte on Saturday evening. A
log was rolled upon the track near e

notice the obstruction until he was too
close to stop the train, but luckily the
engine was not derailed. One of the
company's detectives from Montreal is

be seen by reports of sales given be-
low.
Exporters -lot many shipping 'cattle

effect of considerably quietening trade
throughout the country, The farmers are
still •busy upon the land, having been de-
leyed at the start. The sorting treat
in airy- goods has inti a quiet tone dur-
ing the past week or two. Values in all
lines hold firm. Carpet :prices are expect-
ed to go higher, Stocks of millinery trirn-
mings are light, and merchants find dif-
ficulty in securing refloat orders. The

turers' deliveries are still slow and the
business dame eo fax this season has been
exceedingly heavy. Travellers out with
fall lines report that they find bustneas
men generally hopeful, and that there is
no sign of failing off:in oonsuntptiom
In most lines of business the season wan
opened with very light stocks in retail-
ers' hands and. although buying was
heavy during the first quarter of the
year, there were many factors whiols
tended W prevent any dangerous over-
purohasing. The grocery trader is active,
heavy shipments being made bn water.
The demand: for goods in the West is
large, and it is equaly so in Northern
Ontario. All lines of hardware are in
brisk demand, a natural result of the in-
dustrial activity in all parts of the
country. Money is but little freer than
it has been for some weeks.
Winnipeg -Trade is showing some im-
provement here and throughout the west
although tate retail movement is not yet
brisk. Farmers are now generally busy
seeding, and it is hoped the lateness of
the season will not seriously affect tree

the acreage of coarse Baine is likely to

places Westerners are still putting into
